Matthew 21:30-32
International Standard Version
30 Then the father[a] went to the other son[b] and told him the same thing. He replied, ‘I will,[c] sir,’ but he didn’t go. 31 Which of the two did the father’s will?”
They answered, “The first one.”
Jesus told them, “I tell all of you[d] with certainty, tax collectors and prostitutes will get into God’s kingdom ahead of you! 32 John came to you living a righteous life,[e] and you didn’t believe him, but the tax collectors and prostitutes did. But even when you saw that, you didn’t change your minds[f] at last and believe him.”
